Aljex’s LTL software helps to auto-retrieve cost routing and backup documentation. It can also be used in contract management.

The firm will support customers to manage the lifecycle of a shipment from order creation through execution, including real-time tracking with connectivity to the Descartes MacroPoint network.

Aljex CEO Tom Heine said: "Aljex helps solve the unique problems faced by freight brokers and transportation providers in this demanding environment. These solutions can also be utilized by large fleet operators looking to broker their own excess capacity and improve truck utilization."

Descartes' CEO Edward J. Ryan said: "Descartes has worked with Aljex for a number of years to provide end-to-end solutions for the freight broker community in North America.”
